IRON Series 30 Min Glute Workout - Dumbbell Lower Body | 3
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 20 ธ.ค. 2024
- The glutes stabilise our hips and pelvis and are required to provide the correct alignment to the pelvis. Even balancing on one leg… and running which is always alternating single leg movements.
Providing support to the lower back, reducing knee and lower back pain plus the many benefits to training overall promote longevity in day to day activities and training.
Strengthening your glutes will have a lasting impact on reducing risk of injury whether you are running, walking or lifting.
In this 30 minute workout we will isolate, activate and engage the glute muscles focusing on hip extension and abduction.
For this workout, you will need some dumbbells, a barbell or even a kettlebell!
Aside from the weight, you will need a mat and a glute band.
I will also be using a small sofa that is quite rigid for hip thrusts and Bulgarian lunges. If you prefer, you can perform bridges on the mat and regular lunges with a forward leaning tilt!
The dumbbells I am using for your reference are 1 x 30kg primarily and 1x 15kg for the Bulgarian lunges!
The timer will be on for 60 seconds per exercise with 30 seconds rest inbetween!

You will notice I am less focused on just lifting the weight.. I am thinking constantly about how I am contracting my glutes in order to move.
The glute band should be utilised as best as you can… there is a lot of resistance so use it! At the top… bottom.. and during lifting and lowering! Constant tension when hip thrusting to get the most out of each rep!
Glutes definitely were isolated, activated and engaged throughout!
👊🏼🤩

I’m definitely preferring this style of workout in the Iron series: the longer working times with less exercises, and the exercises themselves are pressing, pulling, hinging, etc motions. Nothing crazy and out of the box, (like some other influencer workouts). That’s exactly what I wanted from a program! Thanks Caroline
Thank you you are amazing I love you work
Totally agree, fundamental and progressive. We can feel the difference our bodies are responding among the 3-4 same sets💪💪
💯 Agreed!!💯
Absolutely agree! Way more my speed. I’m not a fan of super fast paced workouts and I feel like I can feel my muscles working more with this tempo!
I definitely agree! Thank you CG!
Thank you for having the playlists and programs available, even in 2024! Really appreciating these workouts!
Can we just take a moment to appreciate how amazing these workouts are and how much effort is put in to them. Thank you Caroline for motivating me everyday to workout!
Hi Michelle...yes so important that we properly appreciate Caroline for all of her hard work and commitment to us! Yes...Caroline is such a great motivator! I simply couldn’t miss a day of working out! So inspirational! Have a lovely day! Matthew
Hello Michelle… and thank you. I hope you gain so much from this series. Hopefully you will learn even some feedback about how being in tune with the body is a skill and actually makes lifting even more rewarding! Cx
A new challenge everyday, this is amazing. We really cannot that you enogh Caroline
@@CarolineGirvan Not being in tune with my body and continuing to push more weight when lifting was a huge factor in recently injuring myself. I'm so grateful to have found your workouts and this community. I'm working my way back and learning to focus on slow steady proper form while still earning a proper butt whooping, figuratively and literally! Thank you.
Yes, thank for the work. Great workout!
I just finished the IRON series and am going back for another round. I’ve done HIIT, cardio mix with strength, running, and I’ve discovered this is my favorite kind of workout. It is straight to the point, no jumping, and I feel strong and great after every workout. Thank you so much Caroline for offering such a great variety of workouts to help people find what works best for them in whatever season. These workouts are challenging, yet doable for all levels with modifications. Thank you for making h them free with no ad popups. You’ve given us all a gift! And, you are stunningly beautiful inside and out!
Did u see a huge difference in ur body? Like better glutes hips abs? I i will really be motivated seeing others doing the same work out as me and seeing their results.💪🏻💕
@@Asmaa_alkpromiss u will😅😅
The finisher was EVIL!!! I LOVED IT
I am so glad Caroline, you are making your workouts 30 min now. I think they are very doable for most people in busy lives. Please keep up the 30 min workouts.
Anyone else just get the biggest smile after finishing these workouts? Seriously such an amazing feeling
Yo. This lady throws down amazing workouts and she doesn’t talk through the music. I’m genuinely obsessed.
I just wanted to take a quick minute to thank you for all of your incredible workout videos. As someone who has found it very difficult to find free, realistic workouts that I can do daily, I genuinely appreciate your passion and dedication for making all of your content widely available! Thank you for such motivating content that real people who are trying to maintain a healthy lifestyle can relate to.
I hated you 70% of the way through this workout! Great job! I like this series a lot.
I hate her in every single video!!!
Loving this series focusing on lifting! Simple and focused to isolate - perfection! And beautiful colors also 😀 - I can’t wait to finish this one
Hi Pamela...so true...isn’t this a brilliant series! Straightforward moves...but so intense! I’m certainly feeling it! Today’s workout is just superb...you’ll love it...especially the finisher! And I so much agree with you about the lovely colour schemes! Hope you have a great workout and a happy day! Matthew
Excellent Pamela! So happy you like the format and structure! Also a great opportunity to work on progressively overloading in small increments by repeating the series in the future! Cx
I very much plan to do that. I’ve redone some of the epic series each time adding an additional 2kg to the weights. It’s interesting to learn which exercises become more difficult as a result, versus which are no big deal with heavier weights.
I had to do half of those dips on the floor for bridges. This is going to be tough for me. My thighs felt it the most so wondering if I am doing something wrong with form.
A year ago. I could not do more than a handful of Bulgarian lunges without weights. But today I'm using 27.5 lbs ! It's a great feeling to be stronger 💪
Totally loving the iron series! If anyone has lower back issues when working out their glutes, use a stability ball. I find it takes the pressure off my lower back and, as an added bonus, I seem to be working out my abs more. Love the colours for this series, Caroline! Have a wonderful day everyone!
How do you use the stability ball? I noticed with the hip thrusts on the chair my lower back hurt.
I have always used the stability ball for hip thrusts since I workout in my basement and have no bench/comfy chair to use. The only difficulty is that sometimes it likes to roll away between sets 😆
Great tip, thank you!!
If you experience lower back problems you may either have a weak core or you are using your back muscles to do the work, your glutes and legs are supposed to do. Many people tend to hyperextend their lower back during hip thrusts (also during squats when the load is too heavy). Sometimes we tend to use weight that is to heavy and then other muscle groups kick in (mostly lower back). I realized this myself after paying a lot of attention to it. If you dont have problems when using a stability ball it means that the stability ball is not allowing you to do something what you might do whilst using a bench.
I actually just did them on the floor for better support of my upper back and lower. Still worked the glutes. Amazing workout!!
I’m on my third round of this series! I’ve seen amazing positive changes in my body and even my mental health! I love challenging myself with these workouts! God bless ♥️✨
Edit: typo
Not gonna lie..I cried when j knew I had to do glutes today. I am sooooo sore from Day 1 and Day 2..lowered my weights and pushed through Day 3. These workouts are EVERYTHING!
I am right there with you I was not looking forward to this workout at all. I am not looking forward to trying to walk tomorrow ..... I'm pretty sure I'm going to be waddling around like a drunk toddler🤣🤣
@@twistedbeautycheyenne I can barely walk now after day 1 and 2, I'm going to be crawling tomorrow! Just wanted to let youiknow you're not the only one in pain :)
Same!!! I have to do this workout in a few hours and I’m not sure how I’m going to get through it. I’m so sore from day 1 still. LOL
Found it so hard to sit down and stand up after iron 1 hahaha Just did iron 2 and had to see what I was in for tomorw with more glutes OMG I love these workouts ❤
Oh man im glad i saw this comment. I could barely get out of the car today after the last leg workout lol i darn near cracked the toilet seat from my legs giving out hqlf way down 😂 im still debating if i should do this today but i dont want to mess up the schedule 😣
The iron series workout are incredibly, is free but feels like a premium experience. From start to finish, the program is perfect. The timing of each session is spot on, making it easy to fit into a busy schedule. The explanations for each exercise are clear and detailed, ensuring that I understand exactly what to do and how to do it correctly.
The tips provided throughout the workouts are invaluable, helping me improve my form and maximize the effectiveness of each exercise. The cool-down stretches at the end of each session are comprehensive and help me wind down properly, preventing any post-workout stiffness.
I'm on my second day, and I already feel more confident about the positive changes this program will bring. Each workout is enjoyable, motivating, and well-structured.
I want to congratulate Caroline for such an outstanding job and express my gratitude for the immense time and effort put into this program. Thank you for making such a high-quality workout accessible to everyone. Thumbs up for an excellent program!
I have never sweated soo much from a 30 min glute work out! I’m so glad I found your series!
Caroline is incredible. Relatable, inspiring, and I love the faces she makes when things get difficult. It is helpful!
I'm loving iron series so far! I'm focusing on mind to muscle connection to get more in tune with my body making every move count!
Hi Tia...that’s great to read! Isn’t this a fantastic series!
Fantastic Tia!! I am also enjoying the format and main focus of lifting with intent! Have a great workout Tia!👊🏼🤩
I’m just trying to do that too. If we think about the muscle that we are working and tighten that part, the results are so good
@@deniataveras1279 Hi Denia...yes...that is so very true!
I had never dared to go higher than 12 kg and today I used 20kg. Loving the iron series. Feeling stronger 💪🏻 everyday. Thankyou CG.
Wauw! My legs and behind were still burning from day 1, so it was kind of a challenge today for third day in a row, but made it all the way. Caroline, I love it that you show your expression when it is hard for you, or when you pause extra. That shows your real you, no ego just positive vibes. That motivates!
My 3rd workout in Iron! Wow! I love how you workout lower body one day and upper another. These workouts are driving me to reach new levels. I am grateful, Caroline
Hi Caroline...hi everyone...I just loved this glute workout...what a superbly well planned session! The finisher burned...but then that’s what we want from a good finisher! Did the add on too and that was hard after everything else! Have a great workout and a lovely day everyone! Matthew
Yes, the add-on was hard afterwards! I stayed with the lower weight choice instead of picking up a heavier db where Caroline does in that video…it was enough after today’s intense glute workout with that finisher of finishers!
Who are you and why do you reply to everyone's comments? I'm not trying to be rude I'm just curious because it seems like you are very dedicated to Caroline's videos and stuff. And you always reply to everybody in the comment section
I know this is a few months old but I have restarted Iron and dam this session is amazing. My Glutes were on FIRE!!!!!!!!! LOVE IT!!! Thank you!
The Iron Series is perfect! It's hitting all the right spots. My main focus is on mind-to-muscle connection. The timing for this is exactly what I needed, the longer times give me a chance to really slow down the pace and work those muscles effectively. I am sore after every video, Thank you Caroline!
This is exactly what I’ve been looking for! Targets key areas, proper breathing and allows us to focus on technique rather than amount of reps. This has been a great addition to my workouts! Thank you so much!!
My daughter and I are obsess with these workouts!!! We love that ONLY talk at the beginning and not thru the workouts
. TY😊
Thank you so much for these workouts Caroline
After 40-45 minutes sessions in EPIC endgame, I am enjoying these shorter workouts. It helps me stay motivated and focused till the end. Thanks Caroline !
With a full time job and having to take care of two kids afterwards and/or run errands, I have no time to go to the gym. But on days I can work from home, I can have intense and progressive lunch breaks and before bedtime routines with body stretches. I personally enjoy the music and workout without the constant talking and whooping and cheering lol Thank you so much :)
I’ve been increasing my weights with this series, trying to match yours as much as I can. My legs are still sore from day 1! I’ve been digging working glutes a bit extra lately so I’m so ready for day 3!! 🍑
Hi Briana...it’s brilliant that you are increasing your weights...well done! Some days I match Caroline but other days her weights are much heavier...I just don’t have anything anywhere near as heavy as 30 kg! But I find I can work hard with different weights...something I enjoy is using different weights for the same exercise but focusing on making it intense! Hope you have a great workout today! I loved it! Have a great day! Matthew
Hello Briana, yes! Progress overload is always a good idea but it demands more and it's a lot more intense! Which is key to promoting muscle growth! Have fun, push on and stay safe! xx
Awesome Briana! You will notice I will select a slightly higher weight for lunges for example but another workout I may lift lighter depending on the sets, and if at beginning of workout or towards the end but I will always indicate the weight so you can gauge what you might lift also!
Have a great workout Briana!👊🏼🤩
Briana, if you’re matching Caroline’s weights, you are one strong 💪 girl! Great job!
Hey Caroline, I currently have your Iron Series on repeat. Feeling great at 53. Your amazing at what you do 🙏🏾
I'm struggling with depression and social anxiety and CG's workouts are the only thing that makes me smile. I started epic but after a week decided to shift to this program as the previous one was too intense for me as a beginner. I know that spot isn't a remedy, but it helps me to be stronger 💪
Espero que estés mejor ❤
Deze serie daagt me zeker uit om alles van mezelf te geven, niet anders dan de Epec series! Iron daagt me uit om het maximale gewicht te hanteren en uit te bouwen, tijd voor aanvullend materiaal. Dank je wel Caroline!
I really enjoyed this one today. This is my favorite type of workout: straightforward, challenging and absolutely effective. The 30 minute length ism spot on for me as a homeschooling mom of 5 boys. I can take care of myself and not feel rushed or that something has to left undone because I did this. Thank you Caroline.
You are definitely teaching me to slow my movements waayyy down. It’s a great way to increase time under tension and increase intensity without additional speed or weight
As a busy mom on a full time job, thank you so much for these short yet extremely effective workouts 💜
Im on day 3 this morning. So far i'm really loving this series. Watching you stop but then get right back to it is honestly motivating. It shows me matter the pain i feel i just need to get back to it. Oooh glutes...this is gonna burn. ❤ Thank you!
Wow - that finisher nearly had me giving up🥵 somehow glute specific workouts are the hardest for me, mentally and physically, but I know they are so important and I def feel the progess. Up to 17.5kg today, however, the hardest part was getting that dumbbell on my hip especially with all the upper body soreness from yesterday🥴 👏🏻 amazing series so far🥳
Yeah, during that finisher I found myself saying out loud “aw come on Caroline, another one!” Lol
@@veronicas8315 🥵 saaame!
the finisher killed me.
Yes.. definitely a killer… 🥵
Same!
I'm a little behind on this program because I didn't think I would be able to do Caroline's intense workouts during Ramadan. Now that I've done 3 days while dry-fasting, I actually find this 30 minutes really enjoyable and helpful. Thank you for such strengthening and refreshing workouts :)
I feel awesome since I started doing your videos. Thank you so much for making them. I don't like going to the gym. This is such a blessing!
I just started iron series. I'm on day three. I feel like a champion every time I see finisher. Thank you Caroline for this amazing series. I never knew I had such strength in me.
Just finished this workout and my glutes and quads are burning! And I woke up sore from yesterdays workout! I love how effective CG’s workouts are!
I love these workouts! I love how slow they are and how much she concentrates on the specific muscles for each workout.
I'm 3 months post partum... I was going to the gym a few days a week but now that my spouse is back to work i dont have anyone to watch our baby so im resorting to exercising at home. I have a few dumbells and a good Kettle bell and I find the exercises with the amount of time under tension are really effective at exhausting the muscle.
I will keep these workouts up everyday. 30 minutes is perfect while baby naps.
You are definitely my idol!
You transmit us the passion you put into your work and the will to be stronger and stronger! I was loving the sport but with you I appreciated it much more!!
starting this series for the fourth time and i swear it never gets old! love these workouts!
yeah !! this is my first workout of this amazing series !!! I took a 5 day off to rest :) .. tks Caroline for putting this all together.
I so appreciate all the weighted hip thrusts being all together! I feel like it’s a workout in and of itself getting everything positioned for those. 😅
Yes...I loved the hip thrust sequence too...and as you say good to have the weighted ones together to save moving weights around too much! Hope you enjoyed the finisher!
😆 yes! Well done Caitie!! Day 3 completed!! And lots more fun to come! 👊🏼🤩
I am SO GLAD I found Caroline Girvan!!! I definitely like this format better than the others.....shorter but concentrated. Thanks for all you do!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just completed Day 3, and I must admit, I was sweating, cursing, and crying throughout the whole workout lol. My butt and thighs were on FIRE 🔥 😂 But I made it through! Thank you, Caroline, for all of your amazing content. You are fitness goals for me! On to day 4 🎉
14/03/2023 IRON#3 day 3 DONE ! Thank you Caroline ! Glutes are on fire ! happy day to you and congrats team !
✨ Love that the workouts are 30 mins or so easy to fit into my day
✨ Love the aesthetics and the branded dumbells. I defo want some merch
✨ Love how strong these workouts make me feel. I’ve eliminated all my lower back pain having done EPIC workout and now this to date
✨ Love the how to breathe tips when doing the workout. Can there be little reminders as I always forget
✨ Generally just love Caroline Girvan and everything she has done to make it easy for us to be fit, healthy, happy and strong
You genuinely make me smile at the end when you give us the "good job clap" and the smile with your waves! You're helping me feel more accomplished and comfortable with my fitness level every day! Loving the Iron series!!
Amazing. I was in a workout funk. This is what I needed! This series is where it’s at!
Love this series. Love the longer minutes and longer rest. Feels more quality over quantity.
Wow, the most beautiful and inspiring woman I've ever seen! Obsessed with your workouts.... And outfits, and hair! THANK YOU
Lovely comment, Cinthia...yes Caroline is a truly inspirational person! She has transformed the lives of so many people! Hope you have a great workout today and a happy day! Matthew
I was just thinking how gorgeous her hair is
Day 3rd of the iron workout. My glute are on fire. I also used my stability ball which was so effective. Thank you Caroline for such a great and effective workout. You are my shining star. Peace and blessings
Awesome! Thanks Caroline! Loving the IRON series! Im still sore from day one.
Hi Jemir...yes my body feels sore too...but in a good way! Have a great workout today!
X2 😂
Me too!!
Hahaha me too
Dear Caroline, thank you so much for creating series after series for the wellness of this community!
Let’s set our glutes on fire! Can’t wait to finish this workout and feel as amazing as always afterwards! 😍
Hi...I’ve just finished...and it’s definitely a brilliant glute burner! You’ll love it! The finisher is just superb! I did the add on too...which was hard at the end of the workout but my glutes and hamstrings feel so well worked now! Hope you have a great workout...enjoy the burn! Matthew
Thank you, Caroline, for these workouts! You provide such high quality videos on here, and I am happy I found your community!
I have never been so happy to see the word “DONE” 😅😅
Us😢
Same! I said out loud “I can’t do anymore” and then saw done!
Same :)
I'm loving this series Caroline! This is my type of workout, slow, considered and HARD!
Thank you so much for ALL your workouts. I have anxiety going to gyms and your workouts are so amazing for those of us who like to workout at home. I truly appreciate the work you put into making your content. Thank you so much!
Wow what a session! So proud I upped my weights to 54lbs on the hip thrusts and sumos! Added 1 1/2 using wrist weight to make 26.5lbs on the bulgarians! Loving this series
I just started this series, so today is my day three. I was so close to skipping today because my legs were still so sore from day 1, but something pushed me through it anyway and I came out feeling so much better! Although I’ll admit I went weight free for the lunge part cause I just couldn’t do it without failing lol. Kinda scared about getting out of bed tomorrow morning though lol
Im so sore from day 1 too. Its my day 3 tomorrow lets see if im able to do😅
I'm still sore too but have Day 3 tomorrow.
OMG I feel your pain. I’m on day 3 and my legs are still hurting 😂😂. Just trying to sit on the toilet is a struggle 😂😂. Hope I can make it thru glutes
This trainer got the solutions she knows the work outs
I have been trying to work out with youtube since YEARS. I must admit you are the only one who is inspiring me to work out every day (I am actually waiting to work out with you). I think a big factor is the MUISC. Could you maybe share with us your playlist? Thank you!
I particularly liked the body weight only section at the end, specifically the X1 leg hip thrust…my hamstrings and flutes were 😱 screaming! Please keep so of those body weight movements in our repertoire 😃
Hi Luce...me too...I loved the bodyweight and banded moves best!
My second round of the IRON SERIES! Extraordinary session; the burn is intense! Loved the Bulgarians, and the finisher was a challenge. Thanks, Caroline!
Day 3 done. Glutes on fire! Thank you for the modifications. Hip thrusts are challenging, but it's nice that I have the option to go back to bridges if needed.
Really enjoying the slow pace, it helps me to stay focused on my form. I feel accomplished.
Thank you so much for this Caroline! I have recently started to work back out after having my babies back to back 😣 within two years with little to no exercise. And the exercises I have been doing for 40 min or so have been doing no effect on me. But your videos have really challenged me and actually put my body to work and I can see the difference in my body! I’ve gotten my confidence back which was lost soooo long ago❤️ thank you!!!
Stumbled on the "Iron" series doing a search for 30 min upper workout. I did that yesterday which was day 2. Kind of fit. 30 minutes is what I have to work with on my lunch break. I will continue this series. I like the layout of the format. The lack of talking in the workout. The good information on the beginning. It is handy to have, the workout starts at X o'clock. I can look at the intro before I get to the gym and then load this to the right spot. Saves time. I think you did that on another day. Anyway, overall thank you for this. It really fits what I am after and I enjoy your presentation.
Glute power 💥🍑🔋 Happy to workout with you guys this morning! ❤️ ❤️ 💕 Let's do this! Thank you Caroline! You changed so many lives with your programs I'm eternally grateful! 🙏🏾
Well done Kyle. Awesome session on activating those glutes. Was 🔥🔥🔥. Hope you enjoyed 😃
Morning Kyle...and it’s brilliant to work out with you too! You are always here to cheer us on! Lovely words about Caroline! Yes...she has changed so many peoples lives! Have a great day! Matthew
@@annereidy515 Morning Anne...wasn’t that a great session! I did the add on too...and that was hard!! Have a great day! Are you going for a run tomorrow? I’m planning a long walk! Matthew
@@matthewalmond8274 that session was a real sizzler 🔥🔥. Loved add on too. Yes tomorrow a run day for me. Look forward to it on the Thurs. It's a nice break from the weights. Loving the intensity of this series. Gives you time to focus on those muscles. We should be lean & mean after this series 🤣🤣 enjoy your walk tomorrow 👍
@@annereidy515 This was the best glute activation workout 😅🤩💪🏾🍑 It started off relatively simple with the banded hip thrusts and sumo squat but then it got so hard as I got more tired! Well done today you are amazing!!!
I love the simplicity of these workouts, nothing too cray cray but the burn feels oh so good. Thank you Caroline!
Wow! My glutes were absolutely burning 🔥 during that finisher!! I used 20kgs for hip thrusts and 7kgs for the Bulgarian lunges. This was such a good workout, I feel stronger already 💪
Excellent Christie!! 7kg for Bulgarian lunges is impressive!
And for me, with the weight I use for hip thrusts, in properly using the band, slow eccentric and intense contraction at the top I get so much out of those reps! Love it!! Way to go Christie!! 👊🏼🤩
Thoroughly enjoying this program! I'm currently 23 weeks pregnant and this pace is perfect for me. I completed Fuel 5 days ago, which I loved, took me 12 weeks to complete due to both pregnancy and being middle of winter where I am. Keeping that routine when I was unmotivated had been difficult in the cold, wet weather. Spring is here, now no excuses useless the pregnant body says no.
This was just fantastic…managed Bulgarians with 10kg which going from zero weight when I started is amazing…last 30 seconds of the finisher 🔥🔥🔥. thank you 💕
Wow Jenny!! Awesome to read! It is sometimes so motivating to reflect on just how much we have progressed! Well done Jenny and thrilled you are here for Iron! Cx
Hi Jenny...that’s so brilliant to read! You are building so much strength and you should feel proud! Lovely to hear from you...hope all is well! Matthew
Wow, that's awesome! I'm now on to 5 kg with bulgarian lunges, and also started without weight. And there still super challenging with just body weight if you do them for a full minute per set!
Gluts workout, WOW. This training session was brilliant, and the finisher?! The FINISHER was a true burn and I loved every sec of it. Great workout; tension, isolation, activation, and focus. A+ Caroline!
Great workout...thanks Caroline.This "Iron Series" is really awesome, I've been there from day 1 and I'm looking forward to more exercises. Thank you so much 😄
I always so much enjoy glute workouts...and Caroline’s glutes sessions are just so superb! It is these workouts that have helped my running so much...especially going uphill! Strong glutes are so important! Doesn’t this workout look superb...I’m looking forward to using my glute band Again! Have a great workout everyone...enjoy the burn! Matthew
Yes! These are definitely her specialty, she's introduced me to single leg hamstring lifts and ever since then I've been hooked! 💪🏾🙌🏾 Have a good one Matthew!!
Have a great workout Matthew.. we will definitely enjoy today’s glute burn🔥
Happy Wednesday😀
Have a great workout and day today
Hi Matthew, I am amazed by that 30kg🥲🥲 so I think I’ll try to use 2 weights to increase the weight… have a great workout and … push against that band!!!😄😄
Hey Matthew, Caroline glute workouts are fantastic. They are usually very challenging for me. What a great point about strengthening the glutes. I’ve notice that since focusing on glute workouts my back lower back has become much stronger. Have a great workout!
You are the best Caroline! I have done almost all of your workouts these past months and couldn’t find anything better than yours. Thank you so much 💕
Omg that burnout had my glutes *screaming* someone send help 😭
Caroline always bringing the torture that feels so good.
I don't have words to thank you. You're changing my life.
Holy crap I could really feel the outline of my glutes during the finisher. I'll definitely be coming back to this one!
The burnout at the end was a REAL burnout! Whoo! Love the more thorough stretches at the end. Thanks Caroline!
Damn that finisher was brutal. that last full range hurt like hell. but your workouts have definitely improved my legs. those bulgarian squats have gotten smoother for me.
Brutal is a right word haha
I no longer fear the Bulgarians…I even repeated the Bulgarian lunge day once over the last couple weeks! It was just as brutal but got it done
Her next series should be called Brutal Breakdown lol
Day 3 done. Great, tough workout but even more important is that you offer a complete 6-week programme that's well structured and clear. Thank you so much!
Honestly thought I will die from those endless hip thrusts, thankss caroline😢😢
Love this series! The best one yet and there are so many good ones. It reminds me of my favorite - Tempo
Day 3 done. I used two 8 pound dumbbells but I hope to buy heavier ones and increase the weight
❤January 8th 2023. Day 3 done. Today I used 15 lbs for the whole workout and 10 lbs for the Bulgarian lunges. I hope to increase the weights for the glute exercises.😊
April 17, 2024. Day 3 done. Today I used 25 and 15 lbs dumbbells ❤

@@matthewalmond8274 hello, Matthew! I just finished, and let me just say……these buns are BURNING!! 🔥😂🙌 It was a tough workout, but enjoyable, and I am enjoying trying to increase my weight since the movements are slower and very focused. Hope you had an awesome workout, as well! ☺️
@@Future-zx9ts Yes...I loved it! See you tomorrow!
This is my second time through this program and I had a heart next to this day on the calendar... and now I remember why!!! My favorite day of this series :) Incredible!! Thank you so much Caroline!!!
Just Thanks 🙏🏼!! Not sure why body weight single leg was harder for me but thanks for pushing me
I am loving this series so much!! The time frame is perfect. I have been struggling to get back into working out mentally. 45-60minutes workouts were psyching me out so these are perfect. And I love the slow and controlled movements while using weights. Thanks so much ❤️
Love this format . Thank you Caroline ❤
